i can't speak for the government. i know one of the defining features of 20th century iranian history is when people get pushed they react. as we're seeing these days. as we saw in 1979. as we saw in 1997. in 1999 -- excuse me so it's difficult to say to what extent society is behind this project or not. as a prestige project, it's great to have nuclear power. it's great to be up there with the top 10. once you get down to the nitty gritty i think you start to see differentiations. and that's the story of iran. the great mighty full-blown ideals and when you get down to the nitty gritty there are a lot of questions that come up that haven't been thought of before and the example is the actual islamic republic when people voted in 1979 and voted so overwhelmingly by most accounts was not a rigged election. they had no idea what they were voting for. they had not heard the word "cultural revolution" yet. >> question back here. >> thank you. yes, i want to get a sense of during the early days of protest with the governme
